~ means home folder ... but that file is in the home folder of pi, not of
root (which is running this command) ... use:

sudo -u pi -i /usr/local/bin/pd -nogui -open /home/pi/pd_patches/load_test.pd

in any case using explict full paths is a good idea in root scripts like rc.local.

Iohannes answered the rest, I was a too terse! yes, to make it easy to work with 
several projects and Pis I keep all the project specific stuff in a folder I 
call /share/ ... then it is easy to swap between projects.
